Tetra Quad Tackler Junior -Tetra Junior
The Revolutionary Tetra Quad Tackling System is a dynamic tackling dummy that is always upright. The tetra makes the athlete attack at a hip level, always keeping the head out of the tackle and making sure that the body is positioned in a safe state. The angle of attack changes after every tackle, making the players use non-repetitive movements and assuring a proper breakdown prior to engaging in the tackle. The tetra conditions the players to drive through the tackles and use their hips while keeping their heads up and out of the way.
The Tetra is 68 lbs and the Junior is 40 lbs.
When assembled they are 46” tall and 54” tip to tip.
